Asura Emperor Venerable

Chapter 706: Chapter 706: Meeting Under the Tree

“Wait a minute, you need to explain that to me more clearly.” Shi Hao pressed a hand to his chest, struggling to keep up with the pace.

“When a world perishes, a new World Branch is born in the void, taking root in this Heaven and Earth Sea,” the Purple Gold Rat said. “Every celestial body you see has been nurtured by the World Tree.”

“Mature celestial bodies fall from the World Tree and transform into the celestial bodies you’re familiar with.”

“Eventually, the World Tree’s energy is depleted, and it can no longer nurture celestial bodies, causing it to wither slowly.”

“But within extreme death lies rebirth; the World Tree will leave behind a few seeds to birth the next World Tree.”

“Do you know how strong you would become if you could refine a World Tree sapling into your primeval spirit?”

Shi Hao spread his hands wide again: “I don’t know.”

“As long as the sapling grows and reaches maturity, you could say that aside from a few old monsters in the entire Immortal Realm, you would be the strongest!” the Purple Gold Rat exclaimed. “That’s why those old monsters will try every means possible to obtain the seeds of the World Tree and implant them into the bodies of their descendants, crushing all geniuses right from the starting line!”

“Of course, even if you have the seeds of the World Tree, the resources required to make it germinate and eventually grow into a World Tree are incredibly formidable, and only those old monsters could bear the cost.”

Shi Hao, driven by curiosity, asked, “You keep talking about those immortal old monsters; who exactly are they?”
